Current Activities
At present, our primary activity is our annual joint sessions with WP8 at the annual EUROCORR conference. In addition, we have initiated, along with WP8 and WP13, a series of online 101 tutorials. The first one (7th July) focussed on EIS, and we have ones planned on hydrogen (September) and ab initio modelling (December). If you want to be kept up to date with info on these tutorials or other WP6 activities, please join our mailing list (see below).
Business Meeting
A business meeting will be held at EUROCORR 2026 in Dublin. At the meeting, there will be an election for the position of WP chair. Possible new activities will also be discussed, including one day online meetings.
Get involved!

Mission
The mission of WP6 is to provide a forum for discussion of research targeting:
Understanding corrosion from the atomic scale upwards
Emphasis is placed on understanding the surface chemical and electrochemical reactions involved in corrosion phenomena by combining the use of electrochemical measurements with surface analytical techniques as well as in silico modelling. The working party promotes a surface science approach with both experiments and modelling covering various length and time scales.
